Purpose: It is the intention of this Administrative Master Syllabus to provide a general description of the course, outline the
required elements of the course and to lay the foundation for course assessment for the improvement of student learning, as
specified by the faculty of Wharton County Junior College, regardless of who teaches the course, the timeframe by which it
is instructed, or the instructional method by which the course is delivered. It is not intended to restrict the manner by which
an individual faculty member teaches the course but to be an administrative tool to aid in the improvement of instruction.

Methods of Assessment:
Lecture:
1. State the characteristics of liquids and solids,
including phase diagrams and spectrometry.
2. Articulate the importance of intermolecular
interactions and predict trends in physical properties.
3. Identify the characteristics of acids, bases, and salts,
and solve problems based on their quantitative
relationships.
4. Identify and balance oxidation-reduction equations,
and solve redox titration problems.
5. Determine the rate of a reaction and its dependence
on concentration, time, and temperature.
6. Apply the principles of equilibrium to aqueous
systems using LeChatelier’s Principle to predict the
effects of concentration, pressure, and temperature
changes on equilibrium mixtures.
7. Analyze and perform calculations with the
thermodynamic functions, enthalpy, entropy, and free
energy.
